00:00:00.870 --> 00:00:04.890 align:middle line:84%
It was a good day when I wrote
a neat sentence for the teacher,

00:00:04.890 --> 00:00:07.740 align:middle line:84%
on a good day when my pen
did not scratch or blotch

00:00:07.740 --> 00:00:10.950 align:middle line:84%
the paper, on which I wrote
my answer to the schoolwork

00:00:10.950 --> 00:00:11.970 align:middle line:90%
on the board.

00:00:11.970 --> 00:00:14.850 align:middle line:84%
I felt the beginning of my
manhood here and very proud

00:00:14.850 --> 00:00:16.090 align:middle line:90%
of myself.

00:00:16.090 --> 00:00:17.550 align:middle line:84%
I let it be known
to all who wish

00:00:17.550 --> 00:00:22.410 align:middle line:84%
to know that I was doing very
well indeed in penmanship.

00:00:22.410 --> 00:00:25.110 align:middle line:90%
I read my handwriting now.

00:00:25.110 --> 00:00:28.530 align:middle line:84%
I read my handwriting now
after a few days away from it

00:00:28.530 --> 00:00:31.890 align:middle line:84%
and swear I must be in a
dreadful frame of mind.

00:00:31.890 --> 00:00:37.440 align:middle line:84%
Left to myself to praise
my own and weary of it.

00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:39.810 align:middle line:84%
Learning from the
indifference of others

00:00:39.810 --> 00:00:43.320 align:middle line:84%
to feel myself at one
with them by being

00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.500 align:middle line:90%
indifferent to oneself.

00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:50.670 align:middle line:84%
We make a negative
community, passing each other

00:00:50.670 --> 00:00:55.230 align:middle line:84%
in the street as if
retreating from contact

00:00:55.230 --> 00:00:59.270 align:middle line:84%
and hurrying to the other
side where the truth waits.

00:00:59.270 --> 00:01:00.082 align:middle line:90%
